Equipment
- Baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- 1" cookie dough scoop optional
Ingredients
- 3 1/3 cups hard white wheat flour (430g) spooned and leveled
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 sticks butter softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar lightly packed
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F
- Combine flour, salt, and baking soda in a mixing bowl and set aside.
- In a standup mixer, cream butter and white and brown sugar. Add vanilla and eggs and mix until smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Shape cookies into 1" balls and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10 minutes, and let it cool before enjoying!
Notes
- Feel free to spray the cookie sheet with a nonstick spray instead of using parchment paper.
- Out of brown sugar? You can make some by mixing 1 cup of white sugar with 1 tablespoon of molasses!
- Make sure to spoon and level your flour to get an accurate measurement. Avoid packing the flour into the measuring cup.
- A sprinkle of flaky salt when they are fresh from the oven is delicious on chocolate chip cookies!
- I recommend a 1-inch cookie dough scoop for portioning out your cookie dough. You can eyeball it, but the scoop makes it easier and more consistent.
- Every oven is different, so the bake time may vary. You want the cookie edges set and lightly golden brown, and the center to be baked. It's easy to overbake cookies, so I recommend taking them out of the oven on the lighter side
